About the Tour

The Mission District is among the most fascinating neighborhoods in San Francisco. It's currently undergoing demographic shifts and societal changes, but also boasts amazing food, art, nightlife, diversity, and the magical atmosphere of Dolores Park. It made me fall in love with the city and I hope you, too, will experience the neighborhood's charm.

Get the local scoop on Mexican food, shopping at thrift stores, what fruit markets have to offer and where to find a good book. Hear the story of the mural art miracle of Clarion Alley and kick off your shoes to end the tour at the idyllic Dolores Park.

How VoiceMap Works

Focus on your surroundings, not the screen
The VoiceMap app uses GPS to play audio automatically, at the right time and place, so you can focus on your surroundings, not the screen.
Follow a route with turn-by-turn-directions
VoiceMap tours follow a route from a fixed starting point. That lets us give turn-by-turn directions and use context to tell a better story.
Resume playback to go at your own pace
If you'd like to stop for a drink or go into a museum, end your tour then use the Resume feature to pick up exactly where you left off.
Listen as many times as you like
You can listen to your tours as often as you like using both the VoiceMap app and website.
Take virtual tours anywhere, like a podcast
Select Virtual mode in the VoiceMap app to listen to tours like a podcast - at home or in transit.
Buy for less on voicemap.me and sync
Once you've purchased a tour, it's added to your VoiceMap library. To access it in the app, just sign in using the same account.
Do tours without paying for data
Tours work offline, so you don't have to pay roaming fees. Just download them over WiFi before you get started.

Tips

Places to stop along the way

Any Taqueria, thrift store, fruit market, book store, record store, and street art along the way! The Mission is full of them!

Best time of day

For the best experience at Dolores Park, I suggest doing this route in the afternoon on Friday, Saturday, Sunday. Any sunny day will do though!

Precautions

The Mission District is quite safe, especially during the day. Normal travel sight-seeing precautions apply.
